The Black Cats remain in the market for a left-back, while there could also be some surprise additions across the day should speculation be believed. There’s also a strong chance of players leaving the Academy of Light, whether permanently or on a temporary basis. Scroll down and click through the pages to see the NINE deals that Sunderland could complete today:
5. IN - HERBIE KANE (LOAN)
Sunderland are also well-stocked in central midfield, but that hasn’t stopped them being linked with a move for Liverpool midfielder Herbie Kane. Portsmouth and Doncaster Rovers are also believed to be keen. Photo: Alex Pantling
6. OUT - JACK BALDWIN
The centre back is currently fourth choice at the Stadium of Light and may fall further down the pecking order following the arrival of Joel Lynch. An exit - whether temporary or permanent - may suit both parties. Photo: FRANK REID
7. OUT - JACK DIAMOND (LOAN)
Diamond shone during a loan spell at Spennymoor Town towards the end of last season and is now being lined-up for another move. After his impressive form of late, a switch higher up the pyramid may be a possibility. Photo: FRANK REID
8. OUT - BENJI KIMPIOKA
First team chances have been limited for the young Swede this season, whose raw talent could perhaps benefit from honing through regular first-team football. He will no doubt have some suitors were a loan exit to be considered. Photo: FRANK REID
